Episode notes
For much of history, reading was a fairly noisy activity. On clay tablets written in ancient Iraq and Syria some 4,000 years ago, the commonly used words for to read literally meant to cry out or to listen. Only occasionally a different technique was mentioned, to see a tablet, to read it silently. The majority of us bottle the words in our heads as if sitting in the hushed confines of a library. But growing body of research suggests that we may be missing out by reading only with the voices inside our minds.
